Ex-Governor John G.. Brown of
Tennessee is at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel. He is a tall, strongly built
man well on in the sixties, who after
his term as governor about twelve
years ago settled down again to the
practice of law in Nashville with
hardly more than money enough to
keep the wolf from his door. Con-
gresham McMillin of that state
married the governors daughter a
few months since and her fathers
wedding gift to her was a newly
built house in Washington and a
check for 100000, SO that be is
not quite as poor as he used to be.
He became interested in the Gould
southwestern system of railroads
and was for a long time the conf
Dental counsel of the management
IN all the legal iutricacies that grew
out of the consolidation of the trans
Mississippi roads under one head.
He invested largely in southwestern
| lands and had the business sense to
let them 60 at comfortable ad-
vance during the cattle and land
booms in 1880 and 1881, and he is
now enjoying the comfortable quiet
and luxury of a man who having
known hard times in his life feels
certain that the couple of million in
ais possession will go far to comfort
his declining years.-N. Y. Graphic
